    Manipulation of discriminatory T-DNA delivery by Agrobacterium into cells of immature embryos of barley and wheat

    Immature embryos (IEs) of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) and wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) were co-cultivated with Agrobacterium tumefaciens and the transfer of T-DNA to the cereals was assessed by analysis of the ex...
